| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field dominated by a large Ottoman tughra (imperial monogram) in bold relief, rendered in the characteristic cursive Arabic calligraphic style. A floral or foliate spray appears to the right of the tughra. Below the tughra, the denomination numeral '١٠٠' (100) is inscribed in Arabic-Indic numerals. The coin is surrounded by a dentilated or beaded border running along the rim. The overall execution is cruder than the Egyptian prototype it imitates, consistent with its unofficial Mahdist origin. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Mahdist State declared Egyptian currency haram shortly after Muhammad Ahmad's forces took Khartoum in January 1885, creating an immediate practical problem: trade still required coinage. Local goldsmiths produced imitations of Ottoman and Egyptian types to fill the vacuum, working from captured originals with hand-cut dies of uneven quality. KM#3 represents this improvised monetary response — production was neither centralized nor consistent, which accounts for the weight variation seen across surviving specimens.
